The modern performance company Pilobolus and MIT's Distributed Robotics Laboratory teamed up at PopTech 2012 along with several hundred volunteers for a collaborative art excercise. Guided by a camera fixed on a towering crane, the volunteers moved around holding umbrellas fixed with LED lights to spontaneously create dramatic colorful formations in a darkened outdoor amphitheater. The results are stunning.   Less

"When you try to separate art and design you create a ghetto" - Job Smeets

See more architecture and design movies at http://www.dezeen.com/moviesnnStudio Job founder Job Smeets looks back over his career to date and explains why sculpture is so important to his studio's work in this movie Dezeen filmed at Moooi's Unexpected Welcome exhibition in Milan.nn"When we started, it was very simple: we wanted creative freedom," Smeets says. "The only way to reach creative freedom was to design sculptures, because when you do a sculpture, each sculpture can be a unique piece. That's perfect. Not for economical reasons, but it's perfect for creation because every time you can start to design a new piece."nnSmeets continues: "We started to sculpt pieces and cast them in bronze. As with plastic, with bronze you can make any shape you like. Plastic is for the industry and bronze is for the art world, but I thought: let's turn that issue into something beautiful and introduce sculpture into design."nnStudio Job's work straddles both the art and design worlds, but Smeets says he does not distinguish between one or the other.nn"I really don't care," he says. "When you are trying to separate art from design, you are creating a ghetto, which is always a bad thing. Let's not have borders in creation."nnStudio Job has been designing collections for Moooi since a range of paper furniture launched in 2006.nn"The first thing you learn in Kindergarten is to work with paper," Smeets says. "So it's a very authentic approach."nnSubsequent collections included a medieval chair made from plastic and German furniture with hand-painted drawings. Studio Job's latest pieces for Moooi's Unexpected Welcome collection include lamps shaped like upturned buckets.nn"Now we're sitting here in a total design environment, we have 35 or 40 products we did for Moooi on show here," Smeets says. "I'm a happy artist and a happy designer."nnHowever, Smeets believes that even in these industrial pieces, the influence of sculpture is still apparent.nn"In a way, the Moooi pieces are becoming a little bit more sculptural," he says. "If you look at the bucket lamp series, for instance, it's a mixture of wood, of paper, of brass. It's quite interesting."nnHe continues. "[Today], we are allowed to do shit like that. Five years ago, if I came up with a bucket upside down on a wooden pedestal they would say, 'do it on your own, don't do it here.'"nn"I think that has to do with trust. We are getting old people, and people tend to trust you when you're over forty, no?"   Less

Here is my 4th year animation thesis film. Its an experimental animation (at least for me), inspired by the dialogues of the general public, where I ask them "What does art mean to you?...In 2 sentences." nnThe goal of the film was to promote art, and I wanted to make it a collaborative art piece where artists/anybody could contribute their interpretation of "what art means" to them, making it a forever growing art piece. In my original pitch, I wanted to use original voice recordings of the people I've interviewed, and animate an interpretation of their dialogue. But due to time restraints, I experimented with my own interpretation of what art means to me.nnThanks for you time! Hope you'll enjoy this film!   Less

DRAW A LINE curated a rather uncommon art project inside prison walls last year. Roids (London), Horfèe & Ken Sortais (Paris), SatOne (Munich), Score & Fence (Berlin) were invited to paint the inner walls of JVA Rockenberg together with the inmates. The film features footage of participating artists, inmates and the prison director. We invite you to find out more about the project and the challenges we all had to face. nnThe main idea behind this project was that the young inmates should get a chance to understand that people who live outside the prison walls have goals, that the inmates could actually experience how they work and learn directly from the artists about their view on life. During the week meaningful and inspiring conversations between the artists and the inmates took place.

It's a challenge to be a children's book publisher and want to put out something genuinely haunting in today's climate. We all know children have to be protected from experiencing anything too real. So we filmed Art Spiegelman and Françoise Mouly with Neil Gaiman at his new house in Woodstock to talk about comics and children and exposing them to fear and dark material in books. nnGaiman says, "I think if you are protected from dark things then you have no protection of, knowledge of, or understanding of dark things when they show up. I think it is really important to show dark things to kids—and in the showing, to also show that dark things can be beaten, that you have power. Tell them you can fight back. Tell them you can win. Because you can, but you have to know that. And for me, the thing that is so big and so important about the darkness is it’s like in an inoculation. You know you are giving somebody darkness in a form that is not overwhelming—it’s understandable. They can envelop it, they can take it into themselves, they can cope with it. And, it’s okay. It’s safe to tell you that story, as long as you tell them that you can be smart and you can be brave and you can be tricky and you can be plucky and you can keep going."nnHansel & Gretel by Neil Gaiman and Lorenzo Mattotti will be released on October 28, 2014 by publisher TOON Books.

Change is afoot. I’m excited to have embarked upon a new way of working, to have discovered new tools with which I can dig deeper. New formats, which both inform and support my studio work. This is the second part of a mini-doc, created about my time as Artist in Residence at Joya: Arte + Ecología.nnMy aim for my overall time at Cortijada Los Gázquez (in Sierra Maria Los Vélez Natural Park, Andalucía) was to take a step away form my previous studio practice, and to learn new skills: new methods of artistic investigation and research. This has been a two part residency – during the first, I spent time sketching, note-making, planning. During this second part, I’ve embarked upon a series of projects – mostly outdoors – which discuss this arid terrain. It’s the lack of precipitation, the lack of rainfall here, in this region that interests me the most – and that all along I’ve felt the need to respond to through my work. Rain, or lack of rain is the dominant factor here – that shapes and affects almost every aspect of daily life. nnMy artwork is becoming increasingly interested in people – in ‘lifetimes’, in past lives. Much of my work here has been about gathering: gathering evidence, traces, proof of past lives - of people, of places. Interviewing locals, or creating scenes which explain how this land might once have been. Documenting abandonment, or documenting moments of day to day life here. The ideal outcome of my time here would be to have created a body of work, a series of versatile pieces that describe the life of this landscape: and in so doing, teach myself new skills. Most importantly though, is that this new work is inclusive – it’s a step away from autobiographical painting. And so perhaps, here is a new kind of purpose for my work – I hope for these to be pieces that discuss themes and address topics outside of my own life, that describe a bigger picture. nnFootage: nDavid CassnInterview, Production & Edit: nGonzaga Gómez-Cortázar Romero (Communications & Projects Coordinator at Joya)nSimon Beckmann (One of Joya's Founders & Director)nDavid CassnnLinks:nInterview Part I • www.vimeo.com/109017580nJoya: Arte + Ecología • www.joyaarteyecologia.orgnJoya: Arte + Ecología Blog • www.joyaarteyecologia-blog.org/david-cass/nAll Things Considered Blog • www.allthingsconsidered.co.uk/2014/11/david-cass-2.htmlnDavid Cass • www.davidcass.co.uknDavid Cass Blog • www.davidcassart.tumblr.com   Less
